HARMONY OF THE COLORS IN THE TRIMMINGS, WITH 

 THE COMPLEXION AND DRESS OF LADIES. 



To those who are desirous of doing no violence to 

 the laws of harmony in even the smallest particulars, 

 the following " hints" will be appreciated. 



Blue, in the trimmings, harmonizes with the complexion 

 of a blonde J while it impairs the beauty of a brunette; and 

 with a crimson dress or shawl, blue is decidedly inharmo- 

 nious. 



Crimson, in the trimmings, suits well the complexion of 

 either a blonde or a brunette, but the dress should not 

 have blue as a predominating color. 



Brown trimmings ai'e suitable for a brunette, and agroe 

 inth green drapery on the person.
